No joke, I think this might be one of the most important roles for tech-savvy Millennials/Gen Xers.
We caught a glimpse of an amazing world, one that was almost entirely free of corporate or political influence because the suits hadn’t caught on yet. We could talk with ANYONE in an age of landlines
This is how I experience every piece of media, so I'm really looking forward to this.
"There is a little immaturity stuck away in the crannies of even the most judicious of us, and we should treasure it." Thanks, Rog. I needed that today.
I saw a conversation recently where someone wished more designers talked about what a touchstone actually means means for a project, how it transforms into the work. This is a lovely look at exactly that!
He won't. You don't have to. I feel like I have to. So I will.

Before becoming the fantastic designer we know, Ron Cobb (Alien, Total Recall, The Last Starfighter, Aliens, Back to the Future, The Abyss, Rocketeer, Space Truckers, Firefly...) was a cartoonist in the late 1960s.
With the same talent.

please share this GFM fundraiser for this man kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis. i know a lot of you are out there mad about Renee Good, but ICE never quits.
Sometimes a problem stumps me and I'm not even sure where to begin resolving it, and then I calmly remind myself:
All of human civilization developed because someone had no idea where to even begin but did so anyways. I don't need to have the answers now, I just need to be willing to work for them.
Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help:

Mag Fest Day 3 in the books!
Rest in power to Keith Porter who was murdered by an ICE agent in Los Angeles.

Stop using social media as your personal journal.
Do not say you're going to do <violent act> to <political figure>, even if you don't mean it.
Do not encourage others to do crime. Do not post about your crime.
We live under a fascist regime now. Don't give up, but COVER YOUR ASS.
That'd be fun!
To me, the perfect long-term game of Alien the RPG would be 15 sessions of just trying to keep the shake-and-bake colony on LV240-whatever alive, managing people's competing needs and keeping your head down off the company radar, and then on session 16 you get a weird distress call...
Read/watch/play a wider variety of things. You want to have the biggest possible toolkit to draw from you can, both in terms of literary devices, narrative techniques, ways of acting characters, and ideas for exploiting and interacting with mechanics.
Also, include non-fiction - especially history
This. Everything. This sentiment was raw but articulate, as well as completely correct. I really hope these words echo for generations!!
Everything old is new again
It takes you 58 minutes to drink you coffee? Your coffee must *suck* bro.
I imagine that's exactly what the impact sounded like
I'm not going to hold your hand when I say this, please be kinder to people. Some of you are determined to be irredeemable assholes and there is so much more to life. And I say that as a pretty determined asshole. It's so easy to be kind.
